#hoonki au: sunghoon and ni-ki are childhood buddies growing up in the same neighborhood; they both go to the same school and are always together, as they both share the same circle of friends.
also, the bond grows stronger with each passing year, and sunghoon's feelings bloom into something special and romantic towards ni-ki and are no longer platonic.
but he doesn't move or expect anything and is just fine with the idea of having ni-ki around and enjoying the shared moments of closeness and muted intimacy; despite his eyes sparkling with too much adoration for his childhood friend.
he is content with watching him, talking, and being near him. his subtle tease and gentle smile after or when ni-ki is doing such cute, silly, and sweet stuff in front of him, but everyone could see how bright he always is when he is close to ni-ki.
